Comparison Review

Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Porsche Cayenne as you will with the Volvo XC60, as they are both able to travel similar distances on a tank of gas.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The Porsche Cayenne will definitely make more of a dent in your wallet than the Volvo XC60, which has a much lower MSRP.

Dimensions
The Porsche Cayenne is about the same width as the Volvo XC60. For some people, bigger is better. If that's the case for you, then you'll be happier with the Porsche Cayenne, which is slightly longer than the Volvo XC60.

Handling
The Porsche Cayenne has a larger turning radius than the Volvo XC60, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
When considering towing capacity, the Porsche Cayenne is clearly the choice over the Volvo XC60 for pulling heavy loads. When it comes to horsepower, the Porsche Cayenne greatly out-muscles the Volvo XC60.

Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the Porsche Cayenne does a much better job of transmitting its engine's horsepower to its wheels than the Volvo XC60.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Porsche Cayenne and the Volvo XC60. The Porsche Cayenne has less cargo space than the Volvo XC60, which is okay if you don't need to move a lot in one trip.
